    Happy Free RPG Day! (2012 edition - How was your day?)

    I never saw the chocolates, but I didn't find the Gaming Paper adventure to be terribly noteworthy on a quick skim. I'll read through it in more detail soon, but that was my first impression. Are the Free RPG Day Q-Workshop dice different from their usual sets in some way? Your mention of...

    Just lost my RPG collection to fire.

    Eridanis--- I'm sorry to hear about the loss of your collection: you're right, it's not like a family member died, but it still sucks :( You may find that insurance only covers a "reasonable" sized book collection, and that if you didn't have a rider/additional coverage for "collectibles"...

    REAL Old Grognards: Need Help!

    In addition to the fantasy gaming clubs like the Castles & Crusades Society, IFW, and I'm sure many others in the late '60s, there were actually earlier forms of what I think of as "proto-role-playing" going on prior to the publication of D&D too: modern wargaming rules go back to HG Wells'...

    Need help wrapping up adventure

    Hmmm. I like the idea of #2 for sure, but what if in the meanwhile, Zargon attempted to possess the PCs via a magic-jar-like ability (which isn't mentioned in the module, but his essence transferring into the horn is very reminiscent of a lich's phylactery). Some other ideas: - omens and...
